Darkness - Poem by Nosheen Irfan

Within me I carry a world of darknessIt’s so deep that my mind goes blindIt makes me see things in a false lightAnd I feel like I have lost the fightOpen the windows, give me some lightTo illuminate the depths of my insight

This darkness has taken up my entire beingIt has occupied my body, invaded my soulLet me rid of it, before it spreads aroundAnd swallows up the beaming starsOpen the doors, give me some airTo expand the limits of my vision

O’ darkness, leave so I can find my wayIn this world of thorns and indelible stainsLeave so I can spy the distant seasAnd find far-reaching sight of a sailorLeave so I can walk straight on my ownWithout false hands to carry me there

Well depicted on despair and darkness. Beautiful poem having stunning and touching expression. It may be quoted...

O’ darkness, leave so I can find my way
In this world of thorns and indelible stains
Leave so I can spy the distant seas
And find far-reaching sight of a sailor
Leave so I can walk straight on my own
Without false hands to carry me there

Wow, another piece of excellence.
Wonderfully well written expression of darkness.
All of us have times when the shadow of our egos reduce the light of our soul to a small spark.
But that small spark never dies and is always ready flare up to a bright and lovely flame...(Report)Reply

This seems to me a desperate call of someone who wants to get rid of the deep rooted cobwebs stalling the light of self-realisation in life. Congrats for this poem's selection for the Day. Thanks.(Report)Reply
